The Exploding Whale and The Escondido Bomb House

Burning bomb houses and exploding whales, I never would have thought the world would have come to this... I first have to thank an old friend of mine Mike Stobbe,
http://mostly-uninteresting.blogspot.com/ & http://stobbewan.com/home.html for making me laugh my ass off today despite an excruciating headache by pointing out a the obvious similarity of the burning of the Escondido Bomb House and the Infamous Exploding Whale Event of 1970 at Florence, OR.

And while that was funny, the Escondido Bomb House is scary. I have friends very close to their so this is personal!!!

If you are not familiar with this internationally known whale event, I have included the YouTube video to bring you up to date:





Now, present day Escondido... Apparently, November 18 a gardener working on the grounds of a home in Escondido was injured when an explosion happened. Well, obviously that set off a shitload of investigations much to the tenant, George Jakubec's dismay., George Jakubec, 54, had rented the home for three years, and is now in federal prison in downtown San Diego on bomb-making and bank robbery charges... San Diego County prosecutor Terri Perez called it "the largest quantity of these types of homemade explosives (ever found) at one place in the United States." Wow, I guess we really should get to know our neighbors!

Neighbors closest to the home were asked to evacuate Wednesday night. Neighbors outside a 250-yard radius were told how to "shelter in place" by shutting windows and doors.... The county says that their own homeowners insurance should cover their expense of having to find other shelter and they could of course go after the renter, like they could recover anything from him!

So today the house will burn and I am just thinking about the Exploding Whale, thanks to Mike :-)... Blubber was sent flying 1/4 mile into the air, chunks large enough to destroy a car.Thankfully no one was hurt. Did the officials think of that before decided to burn this house full of bombs?

I do hope everyone will be all right! And as for you, George Jakubec I hope you get what you deserve times 100! I have friends with children in that  neighborhood you shithead!!! Yes, this is personal!!!
